So, what’s this blog about?

As you are probably aware, I was recently diagnosed with prostate cancer. Telling family and friends has been very difficult: I don’t know how to tell people; they don’t know what to say. Some then want to be kept informed of every step, whilst some are probably not that interested. Others may wish to put their fingers in their ears and pretend it’s not happening… I was that person in the past!

So I’ve decided to start a blog. I’ll try and keep it updated as best I can although, as you know, sitting in front of a computer is not me; let alone writing about myself. This blog will probably be a bit shonky at first; it might well stay that way too as I have no idea what I’m doing. Something to learn I guess.

Hopefully things will work out well for me. If so, then I hope that others who experiencing a similar predicament may benefit from my unfolding story. If things don’t work out so well… then do the opposite πŸ™‚

Anyway, to prove that I’m still going strong, and know one end of a spatula from the other, here’s a picture…

  1. This is a really good idea Andy. Though I wish it didn’t need to be written. Mum xxx

  2. What a fantastic idea. I completely understand your thoughts and feelings after all I was in the breast cancer boat only 2 years ago. I know it is a different type of cancer but if you want to talk, you know as family, you can always speak to me. (I mean that xx) The main thing is to stay strong and positive. Thinking of you and sending my love xxxx

  3. Nice one Andy, you do know we ( the black widow gang πŸ˜‚) are rooting for you 🫰

  4. Crap news but great idea and way of dealing with this. I had a scare last year so know what you mean stay strong and hope and fingers crossed it works out for the poitive negative

  5. Best wishes β€˜Stanley’

    The blog is looking good and can only help others.

    As someone diagnosed nearly three years ago and hopefully clear after a prostatectomy, I’m following you keenly and hope the best for you mate.
